What? With FHE the client just gets an additional encrypted metadata that is the encryption of whether the attached file is spam or not. No looping required, whereas your functional encryption scheme seems to necessitate the client being "live."
- bascule 10y agoOne of the requirements given in the OP (the one I was referencing in my previous post) is that the server can tell spam from non-spam without the client being online. The FHE solution doesn't work for this requirement. The functional encryption scheme only requires a client to bootstrap it. Once the client has calculated the appropriate function based on their private key, they can give it to the server, who can thereafter apply it to incoming emails regardless of whether the client is online or offline.
- quantumtremor 10y agoOkay so to fix mine: create a circuit that decrypts a ciphertext using the private key, returning 1, 0, or Bottom depending if it's an encryption of spam marking or not, or not valid, and run it through iO. So both solutions still require iO...
